A reminder that I'm aiming to start the session around 8pm EST. Try to be in the IRC in or around that time and from there we can sort out getting everyone on to Roll20. I still haven't seen character sheets for Walfisch or KingpinLarry though.

The plan is to start at 8pm EST on Friday with an expected run time of about two hours. I can't start much later or do a much longer session as 8pm is 1am for me. Mostly this Friday will be about ironing out any last kinks with your characters and getting to grips with Roll20. Since we'll all be floundering a bit I'm…

Build it and they will come! Perhaps. TAY now has an IRC chatroom! What is IRC you say? It's a pretty primitive chat program, it's how hackers talk when they don't want to be overheard (kidding). No signups required, and it's actually as simple as clicking this link, typing in your name, and then "tay" as the channel.…

Show of hands, who'd be interested if this was a thing? I know we've got a few Brits lurking around. Where and when would likely be London on some weekend in the new year. If there's interest I'll start organising.

The toughest task of the holiday season is here: Christmas shopping. Buying presents of course is a simple matter. Especially since I don't even have to leave the house to do so. Deciding what to get however? That's difficult.

That's the rough percentage of Steam games that will run natively on SteamOS. Out of some two thousand plus games available on the platform only about two hundred actually support Linux. Despite whatever Gabe Newell says about how Linux is the future of PC gaming the cold hard numbers speak far louder about how…

This 1/7 Signum figure by Alter is beautiful, and it's up for preorder. But DAT PRICETAG! 15000 yen! FIFTEEN THOUSAND. I like the figure but I'm not sure I'm enough of a fan of Signum to justify that kind of expenditure. I mean that's 15000 before shipping, before tax, before handling fees as well. Yikes.

I saw this and had to check my watch to see if I'd slipped forwards or backwards in time to April fools day. I mean what the... I don't even. I haven't even read the articles, it just looks and sounds ridiculous. P.S. No Ani-club til late Thursday or usual time Friday. Too tired, too busy.

So it seems that both the English and the French have laid claim to the Moogle (EU) server for FFXIV. Also happens to be the server me and my friends are playing on. Fun times. If there's free server transfers I might look into moving to Odin (oh the irony), apparently it's more heavily English over there.

Fellow Citizens. It was just a dream. I don’t know what happened inside my mind nor do I have any way of putting it in to words. It was a moment that defied all words, when I felt something inside me fall asleep and something else wake up...

Tags are a powerful tool on Kinja that allows similar posts to be grouped together. For example want to find all the Gif club posts? Just go to the tag page. I've noticed some people haven't been using them however. Please do so, it makes it a lot easier for everyone browsing TAY. Especially if you do a weekly…

Attention all Oreimo fans, the final three episodes of the anime begin airing (via Crunchyroll) at 9pm PST tonight. If you're a premium member you'll be able to view all three immediately. Free members however get one a week from now until the 31st.

I hate doing this, but my PC decided to crap out on me last night. It's all fixed now but it didn't leave me enough time to finish watching this weeks episodes and to prepare the post. So Ani-club for this week won't be up until around 2pm at the earliest.
